  • Checklist of the Birds of Christmas Island and Cocos (Keeling) Islands
    Checklist of the Birds of Christmas Island and Cocos (Keeling) Islands Christmas Island Emerald Dove feathers R.E. Johnstone and J.C. Darnell Collections and Research, Western Australian Museum, Kew Street, Welshpool, WA 6106 †June 2021 ____________________________________ This checklist covers Christmas and Cocos (Keeling) Islands in the tropical eastern Indian Ocean and their surrounding seas. Christmas Island lies 290 km south of Java (Indonesia) and 1,400 km north-west of Western Australia. It is a small uplifted volcanic island (137 km² in area) and is administered by Western Australia as an External Territory of Australia. The Cocos (Keeling) Islands lie 970 km west of Christmas Island and 2,100 km north-west of Western Australia. They comprise two low-lying atolls, a large southern atoll (Cocos) consisting of about 26 islands around a horseshoe-shaped lagoon and a smaller North Keeling Island lying 25 km to the north. They cover a land area of about 14 km² and are also administered by Western Australia as an External Territory of Australia. The main aim of this work is to provide an up-to-date checklist of the birds of this region to include the large number of additional species that have been recorded on these islands since the publication of the Annotated Checklists of Christmas Island and Cocos (Keeling) Islands in 2004 (Johnstone and Darnell Appendix A and B in: Handbook of Western Australian Birds Volume II) and the more recent review of the birds of Christmas Island (James and McAllan 2014 Australian Field Ornithology Suppl. 31). Criterion for inclusion of a species or subspecies on the list is, in most cases, supported by tangible evidence i.e.

  • Disaggregation of Bird Families Listed on Cms Appendix Ii
    Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals 2nd Meeting of the Sessional Committee of the CMS Scientific Council (ScC-SC2) Bonn, Germany, 10 – 14 July 2017 UNEP/CMS/ScC-SC2/Inf.3 DISAGGREGATION OF BIRD FAMILIES LISTED ON CMS APPENDIX II (Prepared by the Appointed Councillors for Birds) Summary: The first meeting of the Sessional Committee of the Scientific Council identified the adoption of a new standard reference for avian taxonomy as an opportunity to disaggregate the higher-level taxa listed on Appendix II and to identify those that are considered to be migratory species and that have an unfavourable conservation status. The current paper presents an initial analysis of the higher-level disaggregation using the Handbook of the Birds of the World/BirdLife International Illustrated Checklist of the Birds of the World Volumes 1 and 2 taxonomy, and identifies the challenges in completing the analysis to identify all of the migratory species and the corresponding Range States. The document has been prepared by the COP Appointed Scientific Councilors for Birds. This is a supplementary paper to COP document UNEP/CMS/COP12/Doc.25.3 on Taxonomy and Nomenclature UNEP/CMS/ScC-Sc2/Inf.3 DISAGGREGATION OF BIRD FAMILIES LISTED ON CMS APPENDIX II 1. Through Resolution 11.19, the Conference of Parties adopted as the standard reference for bird taxonomy and nomenclature for Non-Passerine species the Handbook of the Birds of the World/BirdLife International Illustrated Checklist of the Birds of the World, Volume 1: Non-Passerines, by Josep del Hoyo and Nigel J. Collar (2014); 2.

  • Parallel Evolution in the Major Haemoglobin Genes of Eight Species of Andean Waterfowl

However, confirmation is scarce in natural populations. Here we studied the major haemoglobin genes of eight Andean duck lineages and compared them to 115 other waterfowl species, including the bar-headed goose (Anser indicus) and Abyssinian blue-winged goose (Cyanochen cyanopterus), two additional species living at high altitude. One to five amino acid replacements were significantly overrepresented or derived in each highland population, and parallel substitutions were more common than in simulated sequences evolved under a neutral model. Two substitutions evolved in parallel in the aA subunit of two (Ala-a8) and five (Thr-a77) taxa, and five identical bA subunit substitutions were observed in two (Ser-b4, Glu-b94, Met-b133) or three (Ser-b13, Ser-b116) taxa.

  • Notes on Some Argentine Anatids
    NOTESON SOME ARGENTINEANATIDS' MILTON W. WELLER ROM mid-August, 1964, until late July, 1965, I was engaged in field work F in Argentina studying waterfowl. Although special emphasis was placed on the Black-headed Duck (Heteronetta atricapilla) , 28 species of anatids were observed in various parts of Argentina. Because so little is known of these species, some general observations are summarized and discussed in the hope that it will point out gaps in our knowledge and encourage additional work on this interesting group. Field work was financed by Grant GB-1067 from the National Science Foundation. Studies of museum specimens in the United States were financed by a Chapman Grant of the American Museum of Natural History, and aided materially in appraising the significance of plumage sequences in Neotropical ducks. AQUATIC HABITATS Although the distribution of Argentine birds was considered by Dabbene (1910) and by Olrog (19591, little comment has been made on the distribution of water types and their influence on waterfowl distribution. Some helpful botanical comments are given by Cabrera (1953) for the Buenos Aires region and, Wetmores’ (1926) observations on both botany and ornithology are excellent. Although time did not permit detailed botanical work during this study, some obvious differences in life-form of marsh vegetation were recorded in the areas visited (Fig. 1) in relation to the species composi- tion of waterbirds. The most extensive zone of freshwater and semipermanent marshes is found in an area roughly bordered by the cities of Venado Tuerto (Santa Fe), Buenos Aires, General Lavalle, Mar de1 Plats and Azul (Buenos Aires).

  • The Avifauna of Lambusango Forest Reserve, Buton Island, South-East Sulawesi, with Additional Sightings from Southern Buton
    FORKTAIL 28 (2012): 107–112 The avifauna of Lambusango Forest Reserve, Buton Island, south-east Sulawesi, with additional sightings from southern Buton T. E. MARTIN, D. J. KELLY, N. T. KEOGH, D. HERIYADI, H. A. SINGER & G. A. BLACKBURN Lambusango Forest Reserve occupies a large area of south-central Buton, the largest attendant island of Sulawesi, Indonesia. Buton is located off Sulawesi’s south-eastern peninsula and remains poorly known ornithologically. Bird surveys were undertaken in the reserve over eight eight-week long research seasons between June and August in 1999, 2001–2003, 2005, and 2008–2010. Variable radius circular- plot point counts were the primary census method, conducted as part of a long-term biodiversity monitoring programme in the reserve, although data were also collected from 840 mist-netting hours and approximately 2,560 hours of observational data. In total, 79 species were detected in the reserve, including 37 regional endemics (46.8% of the total avifaunal community) and four species considered by the IUCN to be globally threatened or Near Threatened. Additionally, a further 60 species (including two more Near Threatened species) were recorded in various habitats around southern Buton that were not detected in Lambusango Reserve, giving a total of 139 species records for the island. We believe that 51 of these species represent previously unpublished records for Buton. We present here a full account of our records from Lambusango Reserve and southern Buton, with additional details provided for threatened and Near Threatened species and new records of endemics. INTRODUCTION Lambusango Forest Reserve (5°10’–5°24’S 122°43’–123°07’E) is a 65,000 ha expanse of uninhabited tropical monsoon forest, Buton (formerly referred to as Butung) is the largest of Sulawesi’s encompassing much of south-central Buton.

  • The Waterbirds and Coastal Seabirds of Timor-Leste: New Site Records Clarifying Residence Status, Distribution and Taxonomy
    FORKTAIL 27 (2011): 63–72 The waterbirds and coastal seabirds of Timor-Leste: new site records clarifying residence status, distribution and taxonomy COLIN R. TRAINOR The status of waterbirds and coastal seabirds in Timor-Leste is refined based on surveys during 2005–2010. A total of 2,036 records of 82 waterbird and coastal seabirds were collected during 272 visits to 57 Timor-Leste sites, and in addition a small number of significant records from Indonesian West Timor, many by colleagues, are included. More than 200 new species by Timor-Leste site records were collected. Key results were the addition of three waterbirds to the Timor Island list (Red-legged Crake Rallina fasciata, vagrant Masked Lapwing Vanellus miles and recent colonist and Near Threatened Javan Plover Charadrius javanicus) and the first records in Timor-Leste for three irregular visitors: Australian White Ibis Threskiornis molucca, Ruff Philomachus pugnax and Near Threatened Eurasian Curlew Numenius arquata. Records of two subspecies of Gull-billed Tern Gelochelidon nilotica, including the first confirmed records outside Australia of G. n. macrotarsa, were also of note. INTRODUCTION number of field projects in Timor-Leste, including an Important Bird Areas programme and a doctoral study (Trainor et al. 2007a, Timor Island lies at the interface of continental South-East Asia and Trainor 2010). The residence status and nomenclature for some Australia and consequently its resident waterbird and coastal seabird species listed in a fieldguide (Trainor et al. 2007b) and recent review avifauna is biogeographically mixed. Some of the most notable (Trainor et al. 2008) are clarified. Three new island records are findings of a Timor-Leste field survey during 2002–2004 were the documented and substantial new ecological data on distribution discovery of resident breeding populations of the essentially Australian and habitat use are included.

  • Machu Picchu & Abra Malaga, Peru II 2018 BIRDS
    Field Guides Tour Report Machu Picchu & Abra Malaga, Peru II 2018 Oct 5, 2018 to Oct 14, 2018 Jesse Fagan For our tour description, itinerary, past triplists, dates, fees, and more, please VISIT OUR TOUR PAGE. Our hike to the ridge above Abra Malaga couldn't have been more magical. Cerro Veronica in the background and feeding alpaca in the foreground, that is the Andes in Peru. Video grab by guide Jesse Fagan. I hope that you found Peru to be overwhelmingly beautiful. The food, the people, the Andes, the humid forest, Machu Picchu, and, of course, the birds. Indeed, this is my second home, and so I hope you felt welcomed here and decide to return soon. Peru is big (really big!) and there is much, much more to see. The birding was very good and a few highlights stood out for everyone. These included Andean Motmot, Pearled Treerunner, Plumbeous Rail, Versicolored Barbet, and Spectacled Redstart. However, a majority of the group thought seeing Andean Condors, well, in the Andes (!) was pretty darn cool. Black-faced Ibis feeding in plowed fields against Huaypo lake was a memory for a few others. I was glad to see one of my favorite birds stood out, the shocking Bearded Mountaineer (plus, maybe I am just partial to the "bearded" part). But you couldn't beat Andean Cock-of-the-Rock for shock value and the female on a nest was something you don't see everyday. Thanks to our team of drivers, and Lucrecia, our informative and always pleasant local guide. I hope to see you again soon.
